Attack Jade (攻玉) - Chapter 47

[Chapter 34]

He Mingsheng was dumbfounded, Lin Chengyou sat back after saying that, but he didn’t plan to leave.

Soon, there were two beauties surrounded by maids. The one on the left was named Wei Zi, with two groups of white gleams on her chest, swaying and swaying as she walked.

Another petite and exquisite beauty is Yao Huang, who has the arrogance of a noble family daughter.

What He Mingsheng said was true, both of them were a little embarrassed. Wei Zi’s lips were dripping with red lips, but they couldn’t hide their haggard expressions.

Yao Huang’s face has also been reduced, but she is in good spirits. She seems to have used a strange fragrance in her skirts, and the fragrance is overwhelming when walking. When she got close, she opened her mouth, and her voice was as crisp as an oriole: “I have seen His Royal Highness.”

Teng Yuyi had long been right . Yao Huang’s singing voice was very impressive. Hearing her talk at this time, he felt as moist as crisp rain.

After thinking about it, Juesheng and Qizhi were both dumbfounded. She knew that the excitement couldn’t be seen any longer, so she hurriedly led the two back to the backyard. When they got to the room, she smiled and poured tea for the two of them. Feeling ashamed, I embarrassed my junior brother like this.

“Where did you go just now?” She kindly changed the subject.

“Actually, it didn’t go very far.” Jue Sheng took the tea cup with both hands, “Senior brother and Yan Sizhi first went to the fruit shop opposite to ask if anyone had bought preserved cherries, then went to the nearby jewelry shop to inquire about things, and finally went to the consignment shop ( Note) After a while, it was getting dark after coming out, so the senior brother and Yan Sizhi went to a nearby restaurant for dinner.”

Fruit shop? Jewelry shop? Teng Yuyi took a sip of tea, this was a good guess, it was nothing more than what he found in the Qingzhi room.

What’s going on with the mailing shop? Did Qingzhi ever go to work as a thing?

Qizhi took out a few packs of things from his arms: “Miss Teng, you can try this.”

Teng Yu’s opinion was a pack of gluttonous food, thinking that Lin Chengyou bought it for her junior brother, she refused to accept it, only smiled: “You guys Keep it for yourself, I don’t really like to eat nonsense.”

Abandoned wisdom and put it into Teng Yuyi’s hands: “This is not the same, Mrs. Teng will know after eating it.”

Jue Sheng nodded desperately: “Chizhi and I ate this kind of gluttonous food once, thinking that you also like to eat it, and then we got a few more copies, Uncle Cheng and Brother Huo, this is for you.”

Uncle Cheng and Huo Qiu Yan smiled and said, “We have them too?”

Teng Yuyi held the package and thought to himself, although the money was given by Lin Chengyou, the heart was from two little Taoist priests, so I brought it back to them, it would be too impersonal not to eat it, so Happy smiled and said: “Since it is a part of the little Daoist’s heart, let’s eat it. Our master and servant don’t have to arrange lunch anymore. This is enough.”

As soon as she took a bite, she was stunned: “Hey, What kind of stuffing is this?”

Juesheng and Qizhi’s eyes lit up: “I didn’t eat it, right? We didn’t eat it either. According to the boss of Hu Si, there are twenty or thirty kinds of stuffing here, except for the mushrooms. , Touhua glutinous rice cake, buttermilk, and many other ingredients that I have never heard of.”

Cheng Bo walked around the streets and alleys every day, and he was well-informed, so it was a bit puzzling to hear this: “Xiaodaochang, a piece of glutinous rice. You add so many good things, I’m afraid it won’t sell well, it’s too expensive and no one will buy it.”

Jue Sheng said to Cheng Bo, “You don’t know Cheng Bo, the boss and senior brother of this Husi shop. It’s an old acquaintance, I only cook when my senior brother came, and I don’t sell it on weekdays, no matter how much money I have.”

Teng Yuyi originally planned to take two bites, but he couldn’t put it down after eating, the crispy and cheesy mushrooms The sticky sweetness of the pulp blends between the lips and teeth, making it difficult to part with one meal. After one meal, you start thinking about the next meal.

She wiped her hands with a towel and smiled, “Where is this store? I’ll buy a few copies for my cousin and aunt to try someday.

” Don’t go, He Mo won’t sell it, no matter how much money you give it, you won’t sell it.”

“Why is that?”

Jue Sheng waved his hand: “This person has a weird temper. He disappeared, and if it was someone else, he probably wouldn’t even show his face. Yan Sizhi talked to He Mo, but He Mo didn’t even bother.”

Teng Yuyi stopped talking, this boss Hu Si was hiding in the market, and he must have a arrogant temper. He was indifferent to money, and he didn’t care about power when he wanted to. He did this in person not to please Lin Chengyou, but to treat him as a real It seems that there are quite a few friends around Lin Chengyou who are educated and educated.

“Yan Sizhi and your senior brother have gone around so many places, do you suspect that Qingzhi did not commit suicide?”

Qizhi scratched his head: “We don’t know about this either, Yan Sizhi and senior brother didn’t say anything.”

Teng Yuyi said: “If Qingzhi was caught If someone murdered, wouldn’t the murderer just hang out in the building as if nothing happened? Look up and see, maybe he will eat at the same table as me.”

Juesheng and Qizhi whispered, “Miss Teng, do you think Qingzhi was murdered by someone? ”

Don’t dare to speculate. Last night, your brothers and the Taoist priests lived in the small Buddha hall, not far from the well. If Qingzhi was murdered in front of the well, he would definitely struggle and call for help. I didn’t hear anything. If I was killed nearby and then moved to the well, it is very likely that someone would bump into it for such a long distance. The situation is special these few days, and the corpse evil may break in at any time to make trouble, and the murderer will not pick it up no matter how bold This is the time to start, so I guess Qingzhi committed suicide.”

“But if it was suicide, how could senior brother invite colleagues from Dali Temple to investigate the case?”

So there must be something suspicious about Qingzhi’s death. Teng Yuyi changed the topic: “There is nothing to do right now, why don’t you call Baozhu and Juanerli to sing.”

Baozhu and Juanerli came soon, but their faces were very bad.

Teng Yuyi poured tea for them and said warmly, “I remember last time you said that Qingzhi has been having nightmares these days, are you familiar with Qingzhi?”

Baozhu held the tea cup and shook her head: “The slave family is not familiar with Qingzhi, juan Erli and Qingzhi are half fellow villagers, Qingzhi suddenly disappeared, and Juanerli was restless all morning.” Only then did

Teng Yuyi notice that Juanerli’s expression was stunned.

Baozhu gently pushed Juanerli: “Young master asked you something.”

Juan’erli regained his senses and said sadly: “If you go back to the son, the Nu family and Qingzhi are not hometowns, but they were sold to the same person, Yazi. At that time, Qingzhi always said that there were still relatives and sisters in the family, but unfortunately they got separated. The Nu family got along with her for a few months, and they became familiar with her. Later, the Nu family was bought by Aunt Calyx, and Qingzhi was bought by Aunt Wo, and I never saw each other again. However, it was not until the opening of

Caifeng Tower that the slave family saw Qingzhi again. Qingzhi told me that Aunt Wo thought she was not good-looking, but she never taught her music skills when she bought her.” What do you mean, does this Qingzhi want to be a Le Ling?

Baozhu blushed and said: “Young Master Wang doesn’t know anything, the woman who was sold to Goulan is destined to have a miserable fate in her life. Even if Qingzhi does not serve men, she will not be able to marry a good family child, she is not willing to live in Goulan for the rest of her life. Doing rough work, so, so—”

Teng Yuyi understood, maybe in Qingzhi’s eyes, being a famous prostitute is much more beautiful than being a rough maid.

“The slave family asked Qingzhi if he had found his direct sisters over the years. Qingzhi said that he had not found them, but she said that Mrs. Wo was also good to her. If she worked diligently, she could save a few dollars a month. Then Mrs. Gejin came. , the master asked Qingzhi to serve Mrs. Gejin.”

“According to this, Qingzhi is not like that kind of person who will commit suicide.” Teng Yuyi remembered Gejin’s dejected appearance in the morning, and couldn’t help asking, “Gejin doesn’t look like that. How about waiting for Qingzhi?”

“Okay.” Juan Erli nodded, “Ms. Gejin is knowledgeable and polite, and her temperament is also very forthright. Those princes and grandsons often send some rare fruits to please her, and she will generously share them with her. People eat together, bring some deer and fish vinegar outside, and never eat alone. She came here not long ago, and everyone upstairs and downstairs liked her. Qingzhi often said that she was very lucky to be able to serve such a lady.

” Zhu suddenly said: “No, not all of them.”

“Oh, is there a gap between her master and her servant?”

“It was fine in the past, but Qingzhi said that Lady Gejin looks like a different person after her disfigurement. She often gets angry with her for no reason, and sometimes beats and scolds her. Qingzhi cares for Gejin day and night, but she can only exchange for her. Rebuked, she often complained to people behind her back for this, and once asked Aunt Wo to give her a different master to serve her. Aunt Wo scolded Qingzhi severely, saying that she was ungrateful and flattered in every possible way when the master was beautiful, but the master fell. Difficult, the first thing I thought about was climbing Gaozhi. If you keep this kind of thing, you should kill it immediately. Qingzhi was so frightened that she kowtowed and apologized, and she never dared to mention it again.”

Teng Yu thought for a while: “If you put it this way, When Mrs. Gejin had an accident, Qingzhi didn’t have a nightmare, and it has only been a few days since she started to sleep restlessly?”

Baozhu nodded: “Qingzhi is a hard worker, and Mrs. Gejin was injured by a specter, and everyone in the building is in danger. , Qingzhi looked fine, only worried about Madam Gejin and her future, saying that if Madam Gejin’s appearance could not be restored, those rare and delicious dishes that could be eaten in the past would not be able to be eaten again in the future.”

Teng Yuyi was amazed, this is more than a powerless effort. The people in the same room didn’t ask her why?”

“This… the slave family doesn’t know.”

Teng Yuyi snorted, the prostitutes in the building were clearly classified, and Caly Ji spent so much money and hard work because she was counting on Juanerli and Huoqiu. Zhu will be an oiran in the future, Qingzhi is a rough servant girl, and Caly Ji will not agree with her daughter to have a close relationship with her.

Teng Yuyi supported her with her hands: “Forget it, I’m tired after talking so much, it’s too chaotic outside, you can rest in my room for a while before leaving.”

Baozhu and Juanerli were a little uneasy: “Young master, don’t we need to play music? ” No

need for Hu Qu, let’s play the “Lotus Picking Song”.” The

two answered in unison, Juan Erli played first, and Baozhu followed by plucking the silk strings.

Just after playing a small half stack, Baozhu suddenly froze.

“Holding beads?”

Baozhu’s face turned pale for a moment, but he quickly calmed down. Looking at the plate of preserved cherries on the case, he said: “The slave family remembered, then when I went back to the master’s house, the slave family asked the slave family to deliver medicine to Mrs. Gejin, but the knock on the door didn’t work, so the slave family had to look for it. Qingzhi, she saw Qingzhi eating as soon as she entered the door. She saw me coming in, and she was busy stuffing the bag under the pillow, but accidentally spilled it on the ground. Seeing that it was a bag of preserved cherries, the slaves didn’t care. Now When I think about it, the package is very heavy, and the tinkling is like something like a hairpin is hidden. Qingzhi was busy stuffing the stuff back, and said, ‘I met an old acquaintance, this package of preserved cherries was given to me by that person. Yes, I want to keep it as a thought, and I won’t share it with my sister’.”

“Old acquaintance? Did she say it was a boy or a girl?”

“No. Qingzhi was very panicked at the time, and hurriedly pushed me out. Now .”

“Do you suspect Qingzhi buried something else under the cherry canopy?”

Baozhu nodded: “This way, even if someone bumps into her, she’ll only be regarded as stealing something, if it doesn’t fall to the ground, the slave family won’t be able to hear it. ” How much are

you hiding?”

“It is estimated that the top layer is filled with preserved cherries, and the bottom is full of pearls and jades.”

Teng Yuyi frowned secretly, no wonder Lin Chengyou went to the fruit shop and jewelry shop to inquire. This is interesting, where did a rough maid get so much jewelry, and did they steal it or someone else gave it? Ge Jin often divides fruit and delicacy, so is it possible that he will also share hairpin treasures for maids?

At this time, someone outside suddenly said, “Young Master Wang, Young Master Wang?”

Cheng Bo went over to open the door, and He Mingsheng came in with a smiling face: “Young Master Wang, He has something to discuss with you.”

Teng Yuyi was slightly surprised: “What’s the matter?”

He Mingsheng smiled brightly: “The prince wants to ask Baozhu and Juan’erli to serve him over there.”

Teng Yuyi was stunned: “If I remember correctly, Lin Chengyou called ten ladies in one go. Why, isn’t it enough?”

Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi coughed dryly, wishing they could get into the cracks in the ground.

He Mingsheng sighed: “Young Master Wang doesn’t know something, this young man is unavoidable for the first time. The prince said that he wanted to choose the one that suits his heart in every aspect, but he was afraid of getting distracted, so he had to go one by one in a secluded place. Looking at the ground. I heard that there were still several beautiful prostitutes in the building, so I asked He to come and invite him in person.”

Teng Yuyi said, “It doesn’t matter if he calls all the people in the building, but I have already talked with Aunt Calyx. It’s settled,

Juanerli and Baozhu are my people now, I don’t agree with them to serve others, and ask Lin Chengyou to find someone else.” He Mingsheng raised his head and wiped his sweat: “Master Wang, it’s all Hemou’s fault. Yulu, He Mou will apologize to you first. The prince is waiting for the important person, saying that if he does not send the person over within half an hour, he will trouble me. These days He Mou is already devastated. I can’t afford the trouble, Young Master Wang, as long as you are willing to let him go, you can let He Mou make amends, how about He Mou returning all the things that Caly Ji took without authorization to Young Master Wang?”

Teng Yuyi glanced at Juanerli and Baozhu , The two kept their heads down and didn’t say a word, thinking that they didn’t want to be called to serve the man, just because the main family came to ask for someone in person, they dared to be angry and didn’t dare to say anything.

Teng Yuyi is not the heart of a bodhisattva, but she promised to keep the two of them safe. It has only been a few days, so how can it be destroyed by Lin Chengyou.

She smiled and said: “It’s so pitiful to say, Boss He is rich and aristocratic, and naturally he won’t put the two jewels in his eyes. If you dare to return my jewels today, tomorrow I will let people spread the matter and let people know about it. Knowing that the owner of Caifeng Building is going back on his word, I will see who will dare to do business with you in the future.”

He Mingsheng said sadly: “Oh, this is really a fight between gods and little devils. , He Mou is caught in the middle, I really want to die. Why don’t you do this, the prince is still waiting for a reply, please ask the prince to follow He Mou one more step and explain to the prince yourself. ”

Teng Yuyi pondered for a while, Lin Chengyou thought. He should be the one who came to talk to her to make things clear, but now is not the time to be emotional, and if Lin Chengyou decides to go against her, she can’t protect Baozhu and Juanerli.

Juesheng and Qizhi kept silent, and it was estimated that she was not feeling well. She had an idea and whispered: “There is something to discuss with you.”

After exhorting the two of them like this, she raised her head and said to He Mingsheng, “Let’s lead the way.”

The place was in the backyard, not far from the Small Buddha Hall. It was originally a small flower hall and was temporarily converted into a wing. The branches and leaves in front of the stairs are in contrast, and it is a very quiet place. When Teng Yuyi passed by, Lin Chengyou just came over from another corridor, and followed a few people at the same pace, including Qi Ji.

“Prince.”

Lin Chengyou stopped: “Did you find them all?”

He Mingsheng smiled and said, “Everyone is easy to say, but Juanerli and Baozhu are a little troublesome.” Juesheng and Qizhi

glanced at the wing room, and the window was halfway up. Covering it up, the room was vaguely visible in the shadows of colorful clothes. The two of them flushed red, and ran to Lin Chengyou to pull his sleeves and said, “Senior brother, you can’t do this.”

Lin Chengyou calmly asked, “What’s wrong with me?”

“Senior brother has already called for ten times. Madam, why do you need to call Juanerli and Baozhu again, they are good people, senior brother, you, you can’t…” The

last two words sounded like gnats, Lin Chengyou touched his ears and realized that it was “waste”.

He didn’t get angry but laughed: “I spoiled them?”

Juesheng summoned his courage and said, “Senior brother, I dare to ask you, can you call their names when you leave this room today?

“Why should I call them so? out their names? ”

Tsk. Juesheng and Qizhi’s faces became increasingly ugly, and they kept mumbling: “Senior brother, this is not good. They were sold to such a place, and their life experience is very poor. Brother you, you can’t make it worse. ”

Yes, yes, if you start in disorder and then abandon it, it will go against the teacher’s teaching.” ”

This was taught to them by Teng Yuyi, and they waited for a long time before they came up with these words.

Lin Chengyou was criticized at the head and face, and he wondered where they learned this trick. He sneered: “I said what’s going on, it turned out to be a good thing done by the prince. ”

Teng Yuyi took a step back secretly, but Lin Chengyou was already walking towards her, slowly approaching, he looked down at her: “You taught them this?”

Juesheng and Qizhi hurriedly said: “No, Boss He is here to find her. We heard it ourselves when the prince said something, and this is what we have to say.”

Teng Yuyi smiled: “I did ask two little priests to intercede. The two people the prince saw, unfortunately, were in the next few minutes. The day saw it, and she promised Aunt Caly a lot of money, so that they could not serve others for half a year. Speaking of which, the prince did not know about it, Rong Zaixi apologized to the prince first, and Juanerli and Baozhu were really unable to serve the prince.

Lin Chengyou nodded: “You don’t want to give up your love, so you urge these two silly boys to say that I bully men and women?” ”

The prince misunderstood. The two elders take their senior brothers as an example, and they are always proud of imitating them. The story of prostitutes has been widely circulated in the building, and it is inevitable that the elders are still too young to understand, and I am afraid that they will go to the top of their heads, so I have to explain one or two things on their behalf, and there is no slander, let alone say that the prince is bullying men and women.”

Lin Chengyou The smile on his face did not diminish, but the fire in his heart continued to subside for one night. When she came to provoke him again, he could imagine how she “explained” on his behalf, and there was absolutely nothing good to say, no wonder Juesheng and Jizhi Look at him that way. I don’t know what kind of ecstasy soup she poured into the two silly boys, but Juesheng and Jizhi just ate her.

Teng Yuyi said warmly: “The prince is not an absurd and invisible person. Now that the ins and outs have been made clear, I also ask His Royal Highness to raise your hand and serve another beautiful woman.”

Lin Chengyou sneered: “What if I want to be absurd and invisible today?”

Teng Yuyi sighed: “Volume Erli and Baozhu have never served anyone, and they are all stupid. They go in and serve in a confused way. It is impossible to guarantee that they will not spoil the happiness of the prince. There are already a dozen beauties in the horizontal and vertical rooms. ?”

Lin Chengyou looked up at the sky and thought about it seriously: “It sounds very reasonable, but unfortunately I said that if you want so many people, you can’t have one less. I also understand what Wang Gongzi said. I wish, why don’t I ask them if they are willing, if they are willing, will Wang Gongzi stop them?”

Teng Yuyi secretly said, only if so many people serve the same man together, a fool would be willing.

She put her hands up and raised her chest: “Then according to what the prince said, if they are willing, they will never stop them.”

Lin Chengyou turned to the questionnaire Erli and Baozhu: “Although there are many people calling today, I will only pick one, and the one I choose is the best. I have a generous gift for you, do you want to give it a try?”

Calyx Ji winked at the two of them from behind, in her opinion, Lin Chengyou is not an ordinary son of a noble family, as long as he is willing, he will buy the entire Caifeng Building It’s not a problem, it’s rare that he is willing to find someone to serve, how can he miss the opportunity. Although there are many people calling today, Dujuanerli and Baozhu are still innocent. If they are in line with Lin Chengyou’s mind, why worry about their future.

Why don’t these two foolish children move? Calyx Ji coughed violently, and Juan Erli woke up like a dream, but her face was pale, not only refused to move forward, but moved behind Teng Yuyi.

Lin Chengyou’s smile was a little sluggish, and Teng Yuyi couldn’t hide the teasing in her eyes. The meaning was very clear, Lin Chengyou, do you really regard yourself as a rare treasure? Look, there are many people who look down on you.

Lin Chengyou glanced at Teng Yuyi, then turned to ask Baozhu, “How about you?”

Baozhu didn’t say anything, Teng Yuyi looked at her with satisfaction, but was stunned, only to see Baozhu’s face like a quiet blooming begonia, even The roots of the ears were red.

Lin Chengyou said in surprise: “Is this willing?”

Baozhu twisted the woman in his hand and looked at Calyx Ji timidly.

Teng Yuyi couldn’t laugh anymore, Calyx Ji was overjoyed: “Sir, her name is Baozhu.”

Baozhu bowed, left Teng Yuyi and went to Calyx, Lin Chengyou suddenly said, “Wait.”

Baozhu stopped in surprise, Lin Chengyou satirized He said with a smile, “Young Master Wang has done everything possible to keep you safe, but you will leave her without looking at her?”

Baozhu bit her lip and lowered her head.

Lin Chengyou glanced at Teng Yuyi: “Young Master Wang sees it clearly, you can’t guarantee this, right? I’ll take it away.”

Juesheng and Qizhi were still waiting to catch up, but they were stopped by Teng Yuyi. She lost her temper: “That’s it.”

After turning around and taking a few steps, Lin Chengyou said to Qiji, “You go in too.

” Whispering, the eyebrows danced and didn’t know what secret manuals were being taught, and the words floated over like a thunderclap.

Bao Zhu was dumbfounded, and Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi stumbled.

Calyx Ji was stunned: “Me?”

Even Cheng Bo and Huo Qiu, who had not spoken, were startled.

Teng Yuyi was stunned at first, and then thought suspiciously, Lin Chengyou called out so many people in one breath, and even the elderly fake mother did not let go, does this seem like a prostitute?

I was suspicious, but left in no hurry.

Juesheng and Qizhi stomped their feet and ran to Lin Chengyou: “Senior brother.”

Lin Chengyou grabbed Qizhi’s ear and grinned: “Wait for me, I’ll settle the account with you when we’re done.” Juesheng and Qizhi were confused

. Shui looked at Lin Chengyou’s back blankly. Teng Yuyi looked left and right, and there happened to be a pavilion nearby, so he pulled Juesheng and Jizhi over there.

Juanerli had been gouged out several times by Caly Ji before, but now she doesn’t want to stay or stay, so she has to keep up with Teng Yuyi.

Lin Chengyou was not in a hurry to enter the room, standing on the steps as if waiting for someone, until He Mingsheng invited more than a dozen ladies with more outstanding looks, and then pushed the door in.

As soon as the door closed, the casement was closed.

A gust of cool breeze hit, the branches in front of the Langan were rustling, and the people in the pavilion stared at them, Teng Yuyi smiled dryly: “It’s a little cold, why don’t you go back to the house?” Juesheng and Qizhi

jumped up: “Senior brother asked us to draw a talisman. We’ve only just drawn half of it, so we have to go back.”

He Ming in the room said to Lin Chengyou abruptly: “Sir, except for Juan Erli and Ge Jin, all the first-class beautiful people in the building are here. .”

There are already four waiting in the inner room, and the rest are all in the outer room.

The ladies looked at each other, puzzled.

Lin Chengyou paced with his hands behind his back, looked at everyone’s faces carefully, and finally pushed the door into the back room, leaning over to grab the water from the Dendrobium.

The bath soup is light brown and emits a faint fragrance.

“It’s almost there, let’s soak in the water.”

The hearts of the four in the room jumped, hesitating whether to undress outside the bath or go in and undress again, and suddenly found that He Mingsheng was still outside the room, strange that Lin Chengyou didn’t mean to let him go out. , and not only did He Mingsheng not leave, but several old Taoist priests came in from the outhouse.

The old Taoist walked to the back room without looking sideways, and said solemnly: “The old Taoist is here, I don’t know what to do.”

Wei Zi and others were surprised: “Sir?”

Lin Chengyou sat on the low couch in front of the window and took out a few pieces of gold from his sleeves. , one after another, he laid it on the table without hesitation, and then raised his head and smiled: “Go down into the bath, whoever can hold his breath underwater for the longest time, I will give this pile of gold to whoever.”

***

Teng Yuyi went back to the room and slept well, and woke up at dusk, called Cheng Bo and Huo Qiu, and asked, “Have you ever pulled out animal teeth?”

Cheng Bo raised his eyelids and said, “Why are you saying this, Madam? What do you mean?” “Just ask.” Teng Yuyi said nonchalantly

, “I heard that animal teeth are extremely difficult to pull out, is there such a thing?”

I would rather use wine as the bait, but now I just learned that the key of the corpse evil is the fangs, and I asked the old slave about pulling the animal teeth

. Cheng Bo shouldn’t be brought out. This man is as meticulous as hair, and everything can’t escape his eyes.

She smiled and said, “Uncle Cheng, I have something I wanted to ask you for a long time. Grandpa said you just turned fifty, why are your hair and beard white?”

This is true, Cheng Bo’s hair and beard is snow-white, except for his pair of eyebrows, which are long and black. Looking at him suddenly, it looks like someone has scribbled two strokes on the snow-white paper with a brush dipped in ink.

Cheng Bo was unmoved, and smiled amiably: “Ordinary little lady is too scared to hear about these weird things, why is the lady inquiring in detail? It seems that since the lady got the jade sword, she seems to be interested in strange things. Interested.”

Teng Yuyi corrected Cheng Bo: “My sword has a name now, it’s called Xiaoya.”

“Okay, Xiaoya sword.” Cheng Bo immediately corrected, “The corpse is entangled with the lady, the master has no choice but to kill the lady. It is entrusted to the Taoist priests of Dongmingguan and Qingyunguan, and the Taoist priests will bear all the troubles. The lady must not take risks with her own body

. After listening to Cheng Bo ramble: “Cheng Bo, you were a hero when you fought with your grandfather in the early years, but now you take off your military uniform and do some trivial chores

. The wife and children are deeply grateful to the master and the wife, and they have already given their lives to the master in this life, not to mention just taking care of the general affairs, even if they are sloppy.”

Teng Yuyi couldn’t help laughing and crying: “Cheng Bo, you and I gossip at home, why do you talk about it? Although you call yourself a slave, I have always regarded you as an elder in my heart, and I will not hide it from you. The Taoist priest at Dongmingguan told me last time that the Taoist magic weapon like Xiaoyajian was born to slay demons and slayer demons. , every once in a while, you need to use evil spirits to feed the sword. If you don’t take care of it carefully, you will one day become ordinary. Uncle Cheng, you must have heard such rumors.”

“The old slave did . I ‘ve heard of it.”

Teng Yuyi slowly rubbed the hilt of the sword: “I always have nightmares after falling into the water. Only with the protection of this sword can I sleep peacefully. The few times I have encountered evil spirits, it is only with its protection that I can save myself from danger, so I have long made up my mind, We must maintain its mana well, but I don’t know Taoism, so where can I go to find demons to enshrine this sword? There are two Taoist priests here to eliminate demons, I don’t want to miss the opportunity to feed the sword with the two monsters. Well, if it’s too dangerous, I won’t go up and die.”

Most of these words are true, only the “Borrowing Your Life” section is omitted.

“Old slave understands.” Cheng Bo pondered and said, “Miss, why don’t you give this sword to the old slave, the old slave is not bad, and when the Taoist priests subdue the two monsters, they will seize the opportunity to stab them at the key point.”

“This method It won’t work.” Teng Yuyi smiled bitterly, “This sword recognizes the master, and leaving me is just an ordinary jade object.”

Cheng Bo paced around the house for a while, narrowing his eyes and said, “Old slave remembers one thing, the old slave returned to Chang’an in the early years. , I once met an old friend in the workshop, who just came back from the Nanzhao State garrison, and when he was drinking with the old slave, he talked about meeting the local corpse king.”

Teng Yuyi’s heart moved, and it was Nanzhao State again.

“The corpse king was also born with a pair of fangs. After he was unearthed, he made chaos everywhere. He raided the military camp every night, and even ate many soldiers. A local wizard who was good at witchcraft suggested that he should use two extremely tough strings to make In a circle, one of the corpse king’s fangs was firmly caught on one side. Dozens of soldiers simultaneously exerted force and tore it off in one fell swoop. The generals of the military camp adopted this method, and the damage was successfully eliminated. Although the murderous power of the corpse is far away It is above the Corpse King, but since the pair of fangs can be stretched and retracted freely, there should be notches. It is easy to say that there are notches, and they must not be able to withstand pulling.”

Teng Yu thought for a while: “It’s a good way, wait for it. I met a few Taoist priests, and I talked to them in detail. But this cannot be achieved by one person. Even if the evil corpse is eliminated, who will be responsible for eliminating the evil? Hey, trouble, why don’t you kill the corpse? Think about that bird monster.” As the

master and servant were talking, Huo Qiu said at the door, “Miss, Madam Baozhu, please see me.”

Cheng Bo looked out the door lightly, and fell to Teng Yuyi. Cup of sweet-scented osmanthus, he clasped his hands, and slowly stepped aside.

Teng Yuyi lowered her eyes and took a sip: “Let her come in.”

Baozhu came slowly.

Her hair was soaked through the temples, her hairpin was slanted to one side, and several strands of wet hair were stuck on her fair neck. She looked pitiful. She probably came out of the bath and her clothes were not dry, and she was tightly wrapped in a felt awning. In this way, her lips were still frozen white, and after entering, she glanced at Teng Yuyi with tears in her eyes: “The slave family has come to apologize to the son.”

Teng Yuyi’s face was full of surprise: “Where did this come from, and what are you guilty of?”

Tears fell down like beads with broken threads, and slowly fell to the ground: “Young master protects you, but the slave family is extremely foolish and unable to do so. After seeing what the young master meant, it made the young master chill in vain. Now the slave family wants to understand, they know they are ashamed, and I wish I could make up for it with all my strength. I just ask the master to ignore the past suspicions and give the slave family another chance to serve the wine.”

Teng Yuyi looked at the wine in his hand. The tea cup said slowly: “What do I do, it turns out to be this. I don’t blame you for this. The Book of Rites says: ‘In the government of the government, in the library, in the court, in the official’s office’ Although you are not like a scholar, but you also need to seek your own life, everything you do has difficulties, and you are also a pitiful person. Just now you don’t think I’m too busy, how can I blame you?”

Baozhu Tears turned into a smile: “The prince does not have the same knowledge as the slave family, and the slave family admires it. The slave family is in a cage, and everything is involuntarily. The thing just now is not voluntary, but the aunt calyx is forced, the prince he, the prince he—”

She side As he spoke, his chest tightened suddenly, only to see Teng Yuyi smiling at her, her eyes bright as cold stars, although she did not show disgust on her face, she seemed to have seen through her thoughts.

The palms of Baozhu’s hands began to sweat. This lady who pretended to be a Hu people and claimed to be the prince, had already regarded her as a speck of dust, which was even more embarrassing than when the prince had just been questioning her in public. The son seems to be just a joke.

She subconsciously grabbed the front, and she had a vague feeling that Young Master Wang could think of ways to protect her, but her heart was hardened, and it was colder than Bingbing. The protection and maintenance that you have had before, don’t want to get it from the prince again.

After these days of stability, she almost forgot what it was like to be beaten and scolded by fake mothers and drinkers. She regretted that she should climb the high branches.

She was thinking at the time that the prince is a daughter after all, and although he is taking care of them now, he will not come if he can’t say it. In exchange for a humiliation.

Unwilling to lose both ends, she hurriedly squeezed out a few more tears and said, “Young Master Wang.”

Teng Yuyi put the tea cup on the table heavily, Cheng Bo and Huo Qiu approached and said, “Miss Baozhu save yourself some respect, if the young master tells you to leave, just leave, and don’t come later.”

Baozhu’s eyelashes trembled slightly . , looking up again, Teng Yuyi already had coldness in her eyes, she shook her body, and got up with a sullen face.

The author has something to say: Jifu Shop: Similar to the later pawnshops, they were generally opened in the West Market during the Tang Dynasty.
